Just like the War on Drugs is a miserable failure, the same will happen with the War on Terror, if people think they can sensitise the wanna-be terrorists with Hollywood-Style special FX and 30″ ads. Sorry, Virginia, it does not work.
Didn´t work for drugs, didn´t work for fat foods, didn´t work for smoking. In reality I don´t think a single smoker is not aware smoke kills. They don´t like to cough. they don´t like being unable to run longer than 8 seconds or 15feet. They don´t need a picture of a black lung to remind them, because they feel the effects of the cigarettes, and the still keep smoking.
What most anti drug campaings do is glamourize the whole thing. “Don´t do drugs, kids, or you´ll find yourself on a neverending spiral of cheap and easy sex, mind-expanding experiences, cool parties with trendy music and girls willing to go down on you for a little dope. OR if you are a girl, all you need to get some stuff is go down on guys that you´d do for free anyway”
Guess what? THAT´S ALL A KID ALWAYS WANTED.
And no, don´t bother to show detox clinics, feces-covered rags of a man in the middle of a drug-induced schizophrenic attack. Those are losers and no respectable junkie thinks he can become like that. Oh, BTW: Most don´t.
Some people even think Prodigy´s video, Smack my Bitch Up is a good anti drug tool, because it shows the shallow and meaningless life of a partygoer/drug users. Guess what, that person has more fun than me.
The above video does the same. It´s being aired on Iraq TV, and I think it will help to increase the number of terror attacks. Why? Because it shows what the terrorists never see, what happens after they press the button, not the way it really does, but the way they want to. People crying, lots of destruction and a big Hollywood matrix-like blast, with traitors (worse than infidels) thrown away, their cars thorn apart… Allah Akbar!! Where do I sign, Samir?
Bad, bad dog, Hollywood. You don´t stop terrorists with movies. You stop terrorists with hot lead, free market and education.
